I asked Tom Barnett to talk about Natural Law in the 2025 edition of the Confluence Festival, and his presentation called “The Offer” didn't disappoint. His path into natural law, self-sovereignty, and personal responsibility began long before he even knew those words existed. Growing up in Australia, Tom constantly questioned the limits of freedom and democracy, often finding himself in conflict with authority while trying to understand why the world felt so inconsistent and unfair. His background in holistic health, spanning sports performance, nutrition, psychology, emotional patterns, and spiritual lessons, deepened during a long personal battle with chronic fatigue that eventually pushed him to explore consciousness, natural lore, and the deeper laws shaping reality.This presentation explores how the hero's journey applies to modern life, the difference between lawful and legal systems, and why true change may begin with confronting our own inner government. If we want a different world, the first step might be remembering who we actually are.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[12:24] How law, lore, and story all connect[20:11] Why natural law is the "great leveler" and what that means for your standing [27:25] How Tom overcame 20 years of chronic fatigue[44:38] Why going fully private is a trap, and what mastering both worlds actually looks like[50:32] Your name is not you, and the pop quiz that proves it[01:00:45] Ancient knowledge was never destroyed, it's waiting in counter space[01:08:50] The difference between a grounded no and a fearful refusal[01:20:41] Why breathwork is just the beginning, and how to reach the essence beneath intentLearn more about Tom:The Humble Kingdom | WebsiteThe Humble Kingdom | InstagramTom Barnett | FacebookTom Barnett | InstagramFind more from Alec:Alec Zeck | InstagramAlec Zeck | XThe Way Forward | InstagramThe Way Forward is Sponsored By:PACHA Sourdough: The wheat-free, sprouted buckwheat bread that actually digests well.

“Send Coach John a message”I found an outstanding post that I wanted to share with you today. It comes from my friend - Mark Hickie  (@MPHickie)  “Purpose is magnetic! It attracts the right energy & repels the rest. Move with intention, not ego. Inspire some, challenge others—that's how real impact happens. Stay focused, authentic & let your purpose lead. If some feel inspired & others are challenged, you're doing it right.”  This is Mark's take on the video clip I played for you today. You can find the link for Devante Warner (@imdevantewarner) HERE.  Some great advice for all of us to live more towards our purpose, be authentic, get rid of the ego and keep helping others to do the same for themselves! Powerful stuff that got me fired up and I hope it helps you do the same.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Dr. McDonald shares his perspective as a psychiatrist on how prolonged fear messaging, social pressure, and institutional narratives have influenced behavior, relationships, and individual autonomy. The discussion touches on the psychological impact of recent global events and what it means to live with integrity when cultural pressures push in the opposite direction. The conversation challenges listeners to think critically about courage, responsibility, and the role individuals play in restoring common sense and moral conviction in their families and communities. What You'll Hear in This Episode Why courage is a foundational virtue in both medicine and society The psychological effects of prolonged fear messaging How cultural narratives influence individual behavior and belief systems The role masculinity plays in leadership, protection, and responsibility Why questioning authority has become socially difficult The importance of moral clarity in chaotic cultural moments How individuals can reclaim agency and personal responsibility Key Takeaways Courage is not simply bravery in crisis — it is the willingness to speak truth when social pressure demands silence. Fear can be a powerful tool of social control when amplified by institutions and media. Cultural confusion around identity and responsibility can erode common sense decision-making. Strong families and communities depend on individuals willing to stand for principles even when it is uncomfortable. Restoring common sense begins with individuals reclaiming personal responsibility and moral courage.

“Send Coach John a message”I've been holding out way too long by getting more guests onto my podcast episodes and it's 100% my fault. I've been down on myself a bit here and there and I realize now that this is a place where I don't want to stay. I want to have the confidence and the feeling of being worthy to bring awesome people and our talks to you! I've had a few here and there - and I need to reach back out to those previous guests and get them back on for some more conversations. This conversation with Tara is really special. During our talk, I had a huge smile on my face and a few tears as well (maybe a good thing that I didn't have my video working on my computer). She shares a little bit about her life from youth sports, to high school & college along with her career as a special ed teacher and her family. I love these talks with people that I admire because I learn important lessons from them and I hope you can learn some things too. People have stories and there are lessons from those stories that we can learn from. Tara is someone that I am really grateful for being a part of my life and I hope you get a few lessons from our conversation.  If you want to get in touch with Tara - email: tarabieniewicz@yahoo.com and on Instagram: @tarabieniewicz.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found an amazing clip that Greg Berge (@GregBerge) posted where NFL head coach Sean McVay shares some amazing thoughts about people having accountability and how it hits differently when it's rooted in love for the people you have around you. This is not just for a sports team - it's for life!! Recently I've been reminded about this fact and I know that I need to continue to work hard to keep being my best, to do my best in all that I do and to keep improving each and every day I have! Imagine having a drive to just keep getting better each and every day. In your profession, your health, loving your loved ones, your finances, developing great relationships, etc. That's what I'm going for.

“Send Coach John a message”I found a memory that popped up in my social media feed from a year ago. I posted this quote: “We rise by lifting each other, not tearing people down.” I needed this reminder and I know others do too… in fact the entire world does. I've had a few comments on the post and it got me thinking about a few things. One is for sure that when you look at the history of our country (the USA), good things happen when we follow this thought! We are inspired to build, invent, create, work together, etc.  Theresa, who is a former student of mine, had some thoughts as to how difficult this can be when dealing with someone who does the opposite of this. It got me thinking about a few things. First I think if we keep being the example of lifting up others (with our words and actions), other people notice - maybe even the negative person. I learned that depending on how well you know the person or are connected to this person, you can actually lift them up when they are in trouble. Life offers countless opportunities for this as we all stumble, fall, have setbacks, struggle, etc. This former student of mine, who is one like so many of them, a “teacher” of mine - as she got me remembering when there were a few times of me taking the low road and attacking the other person. Thinking back to those couple of times, I remember feeling horrible about it because that was not who I wanted to be. It caused me plenty of troubles for sure. I've learned to always strive for taking the high road.  Theresa helped me see this. It all reminds me of this quote - “be the example the world needs to see.” We need more of this for sure!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”From my reading a passage from “Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential” by Brian Johnson, and it's all about Synergy. A dictionary tells us that synergy is “the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects.”  He shares some great examples in this post from pages 523 and 524, that got me thinking a bit along with getting inspired too! I remember one of my principles from where I worked, sharing this idea early in the school year about our staff being more synergistic and the great things that can come from it. He was right. Any team - even a team of two - that connects with this idea, awesome things can happen. The story of the Belgian horses from this passage says it all. Remember, build those relationships in your life so that synergy comes a bit easier in both the good times and especially the rough times too.

1. Rising Support for Socialism A Fox News survey shows 38% of voters believe moving toward socialism would be a good thing, the highest level recorded. Despite that, 61% still view socialism negatively. 2. Declining Confidence in Capitalism Voters are split on whether capitalism is working: 50% say capitalism works well 49% say it works poorly This divide is presented as a driver of interest in socialist ideas. 3. Narrative on Left-Leaning Politics Left‑leaning politicians (e.g., AOC) convince voters that: America is fundamentally flawed, Capitalism disadvantages them, And inequality is due to systemic injustice, not personal choices. 4. Personal Responsibility vs. System Blame A major theme is that individual work ethic determines success. The document argues that some people blame “the system” instead of acknowledging personal decisions like: poor work habits, substance abuse, lack of effort, or educational decisions. 5. Political Strategy and Voter Dependency The author claims the Democratic Party maintains power by: Encouraging reliance on government benefits, Using “free stuff” to secure votes, Keeping people in poverty cycles instead of enabling upward mobility. 6. Trump’s Threat to the Democratic Base The text argues Democrats targeted Trump politically because: He was reducing minority unemployment to record lows, Potentially shifting traditional Democratic voting blocs, COVID‑19 disrupted that progress and altered political dynamics. 7. Education as a Control Mechanism: Democratic-led cities have failing school systems, Poor education ensures future dependency on government, Empowered, well‑educated children are more likely to become politically independent. 8. Government Programs as Leverage Policies such as Obamacare are described as tools for political control by making voters fear losing essential services.

What would you do if you were already the person you're trying to become? In this episode, I share a quick personal update and a mindset shift that's been shaping the way I make decisions in both business and life. I open up about a recent health challenge, including a herniated L5 and lumbar spine degeneration, and the unexpected loss of my long-time chiropractor. While surgery has been suggested, I'm focused on healing through other approaches and staying committed to recovery. Then we dive into the concept of “acting as if.” It's a powerful decision-making filter: make choices from the perspective of the person you want to become, not just where you are today. I share how I use this with leaders who are scaling their businesses, as well as a personal moment where I realized I wasn't following my own advice when hiring marketing support. One simple question challenged me to step back into alignment with the version of myself I'm working toward. If you've been hesitating on a decision or waiting for the “right time,” this episode will give you a simple mindset shift to move forward with more clarity and confidence. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn!  

“Send Coach John a message”This post from Damon West (@damonwest7) really is a very powerful and uplifting reminder for all of us. He shared this:  “When I was locked up, I told the guys around me, “When I get out, I'm coming back to bring hope.” Now I walk back into those prisons and they remind me: You said you'd come back, and you did. Because in life, especially in the darkest places, your word is everything.”  Our world - throughout history - has always needed hope.  Now even more so!! This is such a powerful and much needed reminder that we all need to bring more hope to others (and ourselves) - keep your word when you make promises to yourself and others. Your word is also carried in your Character & Actions too. They all go together. We all have our own stories in life - keep bringing hope to others through your story!!  Find the clip from Damon West, HERE.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Why do some men become critical, miserable, and judgmental in their marriages and lives?In this episode of Man vs Marriage, Quincy Moran explains how settling for less than your potential leads to projection, resentment, and broken leadership.Many men become critical not because of others — but because they have quietly settled for less than they know they are capable of.There is a version of a man that begins to emerge when he settles for less than his potential.He becomes critical.Critical of other people. Critical of circumstances. Critical of the people who may actually be rooting for him the most.But criticism is rarely about other people.More often than not, it is projection.When a man becomes disappointed with himself — when his ambition softens, his consistency fades, and his health is no longer a priority — something begins to change internally.Instead of building the life he wants, he begins judging the people around him.And the tragedy is that those closest to him — his wife, his children, the people who want to see him succeed — often receive the frustration first.In this episode Quincy breaks down the uncomfortable truth behind the critical man and why personal responsibility is the only real path back to strength.Because settling never stays contained.It leaks into your marriage. It leaks into your family. It leaks into the man you see in the mirror.And eventually every man must face the moment of truth.Who you are right now isn't who you have to be.But change begins with a decision.And that decision begins with personal responsibility.In This Episode• Why miserable men criticize others • How projection damages the relationships closest to us • The danger of settling for less than your potential • Why responsibility is the turning point for a man's life • The cost of refusing to changeConnect With Quincy MoranWebsite https://quincymoran.comEmail quincy@mvsmpodcast.comAbout Man vs MarriageMan vs Marriage is a podcast designed to challenge and equip men to become stronger husbands, fathers, and leaders in their homes.If this episode helped you, share it with another man who might need to hear it.New episodes released weekly.

“Send Coach John a message”I was able to connect with two important relationship reminders here. The first came from Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) “Life's not a solo sport. It's a team game.” Nobody does anything in life without the help of others. It's one of the truths that every human being (I think), needs to understand. Those that do get this, usually have many more opportunities than those that don't. The second one came from Alan Stein, Jr. (@AlanSteinJr), where he shared this gem about the fact that loyalty is really created from relationships:  “People are not loyal to jobs. They are not loyal to businesses. They are loyal to other people. Relationships create loyalty.”  This is why relationships matter. This is what life is all about… relationships!  I've been finding more and more postings, discussions, readings, etc., on the importance of relationships. My thoughts here on my repost: Coach John Daly (@coachtosuccess) “One reason why always working on improving our relationships is a key part of everyday life!” This is really one of the main things to keep working on throughout every day of our lives!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I came across a great post from Bob Starkey (@CoachBobStarkey) where he shared this gem: “Patience does not mean standing still…it means working hard, pushing forward, taking action — knowing that in time success will arrive.” What a powerful reminder for myself and hopefully you, that being patient still involves some action. I was reminded that while I'm trying to be patient, I can just sit there thinking that just “waiting” will get me through the things or situations I'm waiting on or that those things will be fixed without any effort by me.  One thing for sure, the people in my life that I have good relationships with, they can be there if I need to lean on them. Again, relationships can help in so many areas of life. One thing for sure, I do need to work on having more patience for sure.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I came across another post that helped me to “throw another log on the fire” of helping to encourage me to keep going. To believe in myself just a bit more after seeing this post. I hope there is that same encouragement for you as well. The post came from Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) and it was this: “The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain.  You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being.” The world is so desperate for authenticity. It's so rare and that rarity is the key. It will connect you to others that notice it and are intrigued to learn more about you maybe, just to see if they can be themselves too. To me it relieves a lot of pressure. Keep finding those things that fire you up and keep looking to have those things, help you be a difference maker for others!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”Found this powerful and truthful post from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) “Always carry a book with you.”  It reminds me to keep doing what I'm doing. In fact, I need to do more of this! I tend to keep looking for things that inspire and motivate me. I keep learning things wherever I can pick them up. This post brings up some fabulous reminders for me (and hopefully you too) to keep a book, a journal, a notebook, etc., with me at all times. Life does involve a lot of waiting. Here are the thoughts I had when I shared the post:   “Love this reminder ….

In this episode of Acta Non Verba, Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Doug Bopst, an award-winning personal trainer, author, and host of The Adversity Advantage podcast. Doug shares his powerful transformation from convicted felon and drug addict to recovery advocate and mindset coach. He also discusses how to navigate life's challenges without self-destructing, the dangers of external validation, and why taking responsibility during hard times builds the resilience needed for future success. This raw conversation explores addiction recovery, the pandemic's impact, finding fulfillment beyond money, and how adversity reveals who we truly are. Episode Highlights [2:24]- The biggest misconception about adversity: Doug explains why people believe pain will last forever and how tunnel vision during hard times prevents us from seeing the blessing until we're through it. [25:20] - From jail cell to transformation: Doug recounts his arrest at 20 years old with half a pound of marijuana, his cold turkey detox in jail, and how a cellmate's tough love conversation changed his entire life trajectory. [9:53] - The external validation trap: Why achieving success markers like YouTube plaques doesn't bring lasting happiness, and how chasing external validation becomes a subtle addiction that mentally imprisons us. [39:27] - Pandemic adversity lessons: How the uncertainty of COVID-19 tested Doug's recovery blueprint and proved he could get through anything by controlling what was controllable without self-destructing. Doug Bopst is an award-winning personal trainer, bestselling author of three books, and host of The Adversity Advantage podcast. A former convicted felon and drug addict, Doug spent time in jail in 2008 for possession with intent to sell. While incarcerated, he kicked his addiction, transformed his life, and has been in recovery ever since. Now he's on a crusade to inspire others to overcome adversity and become the best version of themselves, showing that how you respond during hard times determines your future.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this post that was really eye-opening for many reasons. First was that I've never heard this and then when I sat back - I saw the power and the truth about it. Second - I was amazed at the confidence I felt after I thought about this, along with the fact that it's not just for one day a year we need to do this!  The post came from Inspiration & More (@LifeWithJohn) where he shares with us these thoughts:  “March 4th is the only day of the year that acts as a command. To "March forth" means to take action, move forward, and make progress. It's also the only date of the year that's a sentence. Now you know!”  The quote he shared was “today is the only day in the year that tells you to do something: March 4th.”  Wow! At 60 years old - I am amazed it took me this long to catch this one along with the inspirational truth that comes with it. Every day is connected to the same message that came to my mind: Keep going! Keep moving!  Don't quit! Don't Give Up! Get Better Today! Keep Believing! Keep Loving! Keep Forgiving… and so many more along with Keep Living!!  I'm emotional as I type out these thoughts and show notes. Just like the emotions will show up in the recording too.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found a fantastic reminder for all of us and it helps us to also be our best to help others too. This one came from Greg Berge (@GregBerge) who shared this quote:  "My parents gave me two excellent examples of... You can do anything you want to do." - Pat Summitt.  Greg shares his connection:  “It's about work ethic. It's about commitment. It's about choosing a winning mindset every day. Don't put a ceiling on your own potential.”  Not only did his thoughts catch my eye, but I loved the quick clip from the one and only, Coach Pat Summit. Find the clip HERE. My thoughts with my repost were these:  “Powerful message for all of us… we do indeed need more examples to learn from, be inspired by and to help all of us to simply keep getting better & doing better! Thanks @GregBerge for sharing this one!!” In today's world messages like this are for us to grab onto, lean on, but also to take with us into our own lives. Coach is right - we do need to have courage to get uncomfortable along with putting work into our life! That's why when you find things to do in life that you are passionate about and have a fire for - there is hope for succeeding.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Multiple sclerosis resilience isn't about pretending everything is fine. It's about choosing strength when your body forces change.In this episode of Men Talking Mindfulness, Jim shares how a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis shattered his identity — and rebuilt it stronger. Multiple sclerosis resilience became the framework that helped him drop ego, reject victim mentality, and push his physical and mental limits in ways he never imagined.Instead of collapsing into “why me,” Jim chose discipline. Instead of clinging to status or past success, he chose growth. This conversation explores how multiple sclerosis resilience is forged through ownership, endurance training, and a refusal to let suffering define you.You'll hear:• How ego amplifies suffering• Why victim mentality quietly destroys potential• The difference between pain and identity• How endurance challenges reveal hidden strength• Why pushing limits develops clarity and purpose• How chronic illness can deepen self-understandingThis episode is for the man who feels knocked down — by illness, career, or circumstance — and wants to rebuild without self-pity.Learn more from Jim Perona:• Website: https://www.jimperona.com/ • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimperonaofficial/ • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jimperonaofficial/ • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jimperonaofficial/ • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jimperonaofficial Subscribe to Your Thursday Three Things — practical focus tools connected to each week's episode.Free and deep-dive versions available:https://newsletter.focusnowtraining.comOr text MTM to 33777 and we'll send the link straight to you.Join the Men Talking Mindfulness team at the 2026 Spartan Race and take mindfulness into real-world challenge.

“Send Coach John a message”This one came from someone that I've been connecting with for a long time and yet, this message is as fresh and powerful as seeing it for the first time. Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) shared this gem:  “The word ‘encourage' means to ‘put courage' into someone.  Encourage someone today and give them some courage to take on the day.”  Jon Gordon is right on target with this message. The world needs this now more than ever. You know something… every time I say that “the world needs it now more than ever”, I really mean it!! Also remember, it's the little things done all around us that add up to BIG things that help so many people around the world.

“Send Coach John a message”I found a great reminder for me and for you and it comes from:  Jaime Boswell (@JaimeBoswell2)  “Champions Know… Our excuses aren't  special. Everyone is busy. Everyone is tired. Everyone has obstacles. The difference isn't the circumstances, it's the mindset. Winners find a way to get it done. Everyone else finds a reason why they can't. Decide which one you are.” What a powerful reminder for all of us and the person looking back at us in the mirror!  I know I have plenty of excuses … way too often and I'm trying to work on them for sure! In today's world, I think this is one of the best things we can do, is to take this mindset on!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. ** 

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, Dr. John Price sits down with Molly Carroll, therapist, writer, and host of the podcast Cracking Open, for a searching conversation about intuition, rupture, and the cost of inner honesty. Molly is the author of Trust Within: Letting Intuition Lead and Cracking Open. Her work grows out of lived dislocation, from moments when the life she was building no longer aligned with what she knew in her body. Together, John and Molly explore intuition not as a slogan or guarantee, but as a capacity that often becomes audible only after something in our lives refuses to continue as planned. The conversation moves through engagement endings, grief, codependency, therapy, and the subtle tension between anxiety and knowing. It considers whether intuition steadies us or unsettles us, and whether following it restores coherence or quietly dismantles the identities we once relied upon. Rather than offering formulaic guidance, this episode invites listeners into a more honest and discerning relationship with their own interior life. Key Takeaways: Molly Carroll describes the first “white picket fence dwindling moment” when she realized the life she planned (including an engagement) wasn't the life she truly wanted. The conversation frames intuition as a lived capacity shaped by rupture, grief, and risk rather than a simple gift or guarantee. The hosts emphasize integration of experiences—personal, spiritual, and professional—rather than retreating from discomfort after rupture. Molly recounts leaving an engagement with a fiancé visa in play, choosing honesty with herself over social expectations. The interview situates therapy and healing arts as pathways to listen to deep truths, even when those truths disrupt established life scripts Time-stamps (00:00) Introduction and Guest Overview (00:41) Housekeeping and Announcements (02:44) Introducing Molly Carroll (04:31) Molly's Journey and Intuition (07:16) Cracking Open Moments (11:28) The Role of Intuition and Personal Growth (22:53) Victimhood and Personal Responsibility (33:01) Connection and Compassion (43:05) Exploring Emotional Expression (43:53) The Healing Power of Tears (46:32) Creating Space for Vulnerability (49:20) Understanding Codependency (52:57) Intuition vs. Codependency (54:41) The Role of Intuition in Decision Making (01:08:56) Money, Worth, and Intuition (01:18:17) Concluding Thoughts and Reflections Connect with Molly Website https://molly-carroll.com/about/ Book https://www.amazon.com/Cracking-Open-2nd-Molly-Carroll/dp/1320934374?keywords=cracking+open&qid=1572021083&sr=8-1 Website for John http://www.drjohnwprice.com WATCH: YouTube for The Sacred Speaks https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOAuksnpfht1udHWUVEO7Rg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thesacredspeaks/ @thesacredspeaks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesacredspeaks/ Brought to you by: https://www.thecenterforhas.com Theme music provided by: http://www.modernnationsmusic.com

Millions of dollars allegedly misused in welfare programs. Illegal immigrants on voter rolls. And the Trump administration fights to get the data states refuse to share. Today on AmperWave Daily, we break down the latest updates from JD Vance's crackdown on welfare and voter fraud, and what it could mean for elections and taxpayers.

“Send Coach John a message”Simple one today for sure. A reminder for all of us to just take the time, or find the time, but to MAKE the time to do something good for ourselves! This all came about from our dog yesterday. I was busy focusing on something here on my computer. He hopped out of his chair and went looking outside at our patio, which had plenty of sunshine on it. He came back to me and started staring at me. I asked him what he wanted. He kept staring at me and then little whimperings started being directed my way.  So I knew it was something important. He took me over to the doorwall and I let him out. He stopped in the sunshine on the patio and looked back at me. You see, he loves sitting in the sun in one of our chairs on the patio. But, it's still February and we have the outdoor furniture put away. But I knew exactly what he wanted. So I got one of our camping chairs out of the garage and set it up for him. He hopped up into it and I went back inside - but he kept staring at me. So, I knew he wanted me to come sit with him. I went to get one of my hoodies on, came outside and we sat out there for maybe 20 minutes or so.  WOW.. did that sunshine feel good on my face and he had a wonderful time sitting on my lap! He knew that I would like sitting out there with him too and he was totally right!! MAKE the time for yourself to get some fresh air, some sunshine and time with one of your best buddies. Or at least on your own just thinking, smiling and relaxing without your phone.

Together, they examine: How the enemy works through systems, structures, and misaligned desires The difference between personal responsibility and spiritual opposition Why obsession with darkness is just as unhelpful as dismissing it How to stay grounded in Christ's victory rather than panic This conversation reframes spiritual warfare as something far more ordinary — and far more hopeful — than we often imagine. Not demon hunting.Not blame shifting.But cultivating wholeness. Because the center of the Christian story is not darkness.It's restoration.

“Send Coach John a message”I found a fabulous post from Vala Afshar (@ValaAfshar) that reminds me to keep trying to be my best! These things that he's talking about are simple game changers for anyone who is looking to keep improving. Check this message out:  “Be humble and kind. You could be wrong. Be forgiving. You also make mistakes. Be honest. Character is a door opener. Be generous. Givers sleep better at night. Be grateful. Luck seeks the thankful. Be courageous. Fight for your happiness. Be yourself, always. You will be happier.”  Who doesn't want to be genuinely more happy? Happiness is fleeting most of the time. Joy is more permanent. But following these guidelines sure does help. I had a wonderful conversation with a waitress yesterday. She had just turned 30 and she has 3 kids. Her attitude around the entire restaurant was amazing!! I watched as she really took the time to talk to and listen with an older man that I could tell was a regular and how his face lit up with a huge smile for the connection she was showing to him. I made sure to thank her for being a positive example for all of us to learn from. I also mentioned that I recently turned 60 and that I remember how much better life got after 30 - she said she's seeing it already! These things that Vala is sharing - are part of not putting up with negative things… and she mentioned that is what she's doing more of. That is a powerful thing to get control over!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”This episode is brought to you by NBC Sports … LOL… not really, but this is where I found the inspiration for today's episode.  (@NBCSports). My thoughts on this - “Coach John Daly (@coachtosuccess) were: Love this perspective from (@miketirico) - look at his eyes as he's sharing from his heart!” The quote from the post: "Our country loves sports and it brings us together unlike anything else." Mike Tirico wraps up a HISTORIC #WinterOlympics for Team USA.  Love the emotion from Mike and reminding us that great things can happen when we get inspired to chase our dreams. He's right. Our dreams that we have are for us to start going after now, whatever age we are. Be inspired by the work, blood, sweat and tears that others give for their dreams. It's not about sports - it's about the belief in ourselves knowing that others find ways of obtaining their dreams. We can do the same. Don't let the politics swirling around put a damper on your dreams and goals. It's about the lessons that we can take from others - not just athletes, but business people, medical leaders, faith leaders, leaders from all professions and not just in our country, but from around the world. It's time for you to go after those dreams that you have in your heart and soul. The same is true for me!

What does it take to build a global design firm from scratch and then walk away from it at the top of your game? Mia Feasey did exactly that. She launched her international design business at just 24 years old, scaled it across borders, and made the bold decision to exit at 45, not because she had to, but because she chose to. In this episode, Christina's special guest Mia gets refreshingly real about what it actually took: the risks she took before she felt ready, the moments she almost played it safe, and why authenticity became her most powerful business strategy. If you've ever wondered what's waiting for you on the other side of a big leap, or if you're quietly dreaming of your own next chapter, this conversation will light a fire under you. About Mia Mia Feasey is the founder of Siren Design Group, a global design consultancy she built from a single Sydney studio into an international powerhouse with clients like Amazon, Google, Chanel, and Balenciaga. Guided by a people-first philosophy and a refusal to fear failure, she grew the firm over 20 years before making the bold decision to hand over the reins and walk away. Now based in Queenstown, New Zealand, Mia is channeling the same creativity and courage that built her business into redesigning her life — slowing down, reconnecting with her family, and figuring out what truly makes her heart sing.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this post from Greg Berge (@GregBerge) where he shared this clip from American Freestyle skier, Eileen Gu. Greg's intro was this:  “This is a Mindset MUST-watch. Bookmark and share.  We can become exactly who we want to become. We can control our thoughts.”  It was such a breath of fresh air starting out with a sincere question from the reporter, whose name was Charlotte, and you can tell there is a bit more of humor coming from other reporters as to the down to earth way of asking it. The answer that Eileen gave - total brilliance!  These were my thoughts as I shared this post:  “Love this!! I've been thinking a lot lately of how my 8 year old little self would be proud of me today! (Also remembering he's still a part of me) I'm also thinking about how my future self would be grateful for the things I'm doing & thinking today!” You can tell by how fast she talks, that she has a lot going on in her head and / or she's simply full of passion for what she does in life. I think that's really cool that she explained a little bit of what is going on inside her head and what we can learn about it. Outstanding clip here and I'm glad I found it as I think the value from this is simply tremendous.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Episode Overview In this episode, John sits down with Tina Caul for an honest and transformational conversation about leadership growth, emotional intelligence, and building an organization that scales beyond the founder. Tina shares how she hit a leadership ceiling after building one of the top-performing teams at eXp—closing 700–800 deals annually—only to realize the real bottleneck wasn't systems or talent… it was her own leadership lid. This episode dives deep into what it really takes to evolve from leading buyers and sellers to leading leaders. From unpacking personal triggers to implementing structured leadership frameworks like the Pathway of Personal Responsibility, the EQ Matrix, and the Kairos Circle, Tina opens up about the uncomfortable—but necessary—work required to scale to the next level. If you've ever felt stuck at a growth plateau, frustrated with people problems, or unsure how to elevate your organization beyond your own capacity, this conversation will challenge and equip you to level up. Key Topics Covered The Leadership Lid Why every business problem is ultimately a leadership problem Recognizing when you've hit your leadership ceiling Why what got you here won't get you there From Top Producer to True Leader The shift from selling homes to leading people The dangers of "high support, low challenge" environments Why vulnerability builds trust inside organizations Emotional Intelligence & Self-Awareness The EQ Matrix: self-awareness and others-awareness Why leaders must master emotional regulation How unresolved childhood patterns impact leadership decisions The Pathway of Personal Responsibility Understanding triggers and avoiding emotional "pinball" reactions Learning to pause, breathe, and respond instead of react Extreme ownership in leadership The Kairos Circle Framework Turning conflict into growth conversations Creating safe, structured ways to unpack misunderstandings How to prevent resentment from compounding over time Scaling Beyond Yourself Why leaders must build leaders who build leaders The importance of unified language and shared frameworks Moving from checkers to chess as your organization grows Resources & Mentions Leadership Gravitas by Eric Pfeiffer Empower Coaching Podcast Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink Headspace App (mindfulness practice) Concepts discussed: Emotional Intelligence (EQ), Developmental Square, Pathway of Personal Responsibility, Kairos Circle Final Takeaway If your organization has plateaued, it's not a market problem. It's not a talent problem. It's a leadership growth opportunity. The size of your business will always reflect the size of your leadership capacity. And scaling requires more than tactics—it demands self-awareness, emotional maturity, and the courage to confront what's holding you back. Leadership isn't about control. It's about clarity, responsibility, and building leaders who multiply impact beyond you. "Every business problem is a leadership problem."

“Send Coach John a message”Saw an amazing reminder today to always carry around with us, from: Alan Stein, Jr. (@AlanSteinJr) “Always give without remembering. Always receive without forgetting.”  There has been many historical lessons from many different sources throughout life - this is one of the main ones for humans to connect with, and yet we seem to struggle with this.  We don't keep score of who owes us, but yet, we should always remember those that help us for sure.   Again, easy to see on paper but more challenging to put action behind it in our everyday lives!  It was also echoed from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) just a few posts before Alan's.  This one shared this thought: “The happiest people are the givers, not the takers.” Both of these remind me of what Professor Morrie Schwartz said to Mitch Albom - from the book “Tuesdays With Morrie”: “When I give to others, I feel alive. When I take from others, I feel like I'm dying.”  The world needs more givers. This is something that I'm trying to do more of for sure. Morrie was right. The world also needs more examples to learn from on how to give more too.

“Send Coach John a message”I saw so many stories recently that connected with this powerful reminder from Kevin DeShazo (@KevinDeShazo) “Negative people don't make teams better. Negative people don't make relationships better. Negative people don't make organizations better. Negative people don't make the world better. If you want to make things better, show up with hope, purpose, positivity. You control you.”  This was connected to some of the stories coming from the recent Winter Olympics in Italy. Many of the athletes shared stories about their preparation for their events, but also how their journey got them there. So many examples of controlling our own minds and emotions. Getting back to one of life's greatest lessons (athlete or not) - control the things we can control. Our attitude, our effort, our responses to outside events and our minds. For many - this is a lifetime journey of learning and struggling with how to do this.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. ** 

Step into Episode 200 of ‘On The Delo' as Delo celebrates a major milestone by sitting down with fellow "Delo" Dave Delos, a 30-year bar industry veteran, owner of six neighborhood dive bars, and president of the Arizona Licensed Beverage Association (ALBA). From growing up in Poughkeepsie, New York, and building homes with his hands to buying his first bar from his father-in-law Tony Marino in 1996, Dave shares the full arc of how hard work, family, and a willingness to "figure it out" built a six-location dive bar empire across the West Valley.​The conversation goes deep on what it really means to run a family business in hospitality, how Dave and his wife Lori built their operation together (she's known as "the executioner" for a reason), and how their son and daughter have now stepped into daily operations and HR to carry the legacy forward. Dave also opens up about life at 60, losing his father last year, taking his 86-year-old mom wine tasting, and why golf, travel, cooking, and wine at night keep him grounded. You'll hear one of the wildest bar stories ever told involving a live World War II hand grenade thrown into one of his bars, plus Dave's journey from ALBA board member to seven-year president, why a $200,000 Series 6 license needs protecting, and where he stands on mandatory Title 4 training and personal responsibility. Stay for rapid fire on Sunday day drinkers, Michelob Ultra, napkin deals, White Castle, and why dive bars are the fabric of America.​Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:53) Episode 200 Celebration, "On The Delos," and Why Delo Matters to the Industry(2:54 - 6:38) Growing Up in New York, the Mazda B2000 Road Trip, and Meeting His Wife at Gentleman's Choice(6:39 - 9:54) Moving to Arizona, Buying a Bar from Tony Marino, and Building Six Locations with His Hands(9:54 - 12:38) His Wife "The Executioner," Partnership, and What a Good Woman Does for Your Life and Business(12:39 - 15:18) Passing the Business to His Kids, College First, and Letting Go After 30 Years of Decisions(15:18 - 17:55) Life at 60: Golf, Travel, Wine at Night, and Taking His 86-Year-Old Mom Wine Tasting(17:56 - 20:52) The Live Hand Grenade Story: The Wildest Thing That's Ever Happened in One of His Bars(20:52 - 25:06) Getting Into ALBA, Industry Titans, Bill Weigel, and Why It's "My Time, My Turn"(25:06 - 29:02) What ALBA Does: Lobbying, Licensing, Protecting the $200K Series 6, and Don Isaacson at the Capitol(29:02 - 33:19) Title 4 Training, Mandatory vs. Voluntary, Personal Responsibility, and Masking Intoxication(33:19 - 35:42) ALBA Membership Benefits, $300/Year, Insurance Discounts, and a Welcome to New Members(35:42 - 42:03) Rapid Fire: Sunday Drinkers, Dive Bars, Michelob Ultra, Napkin Deals, White Castle, and Delo's Close

“Send Coach John a message”Super lesson here - I needed this reminder to keep striving to be kind to others. From Spencer Rayner (@spencerrayner) “Retweet from @ColinSpenc4257 Thought of The Day. #SuccessTRAIN #JoyTRAIN - You're never too important to be nice to people!” Simple message, yet for some people it's the most challenging thing ever! You can be successful, heck even rich and “important”, but don't ever think that entitles you to be a mean person to others. We need to be better. We need to do better!

“Send Coach John a message”Love the thoughts and reflections being laid down like a perfect bunt - by one of the best in the game… not just the game of baseball, but the game of life! Thanks Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) for this gem: “1.3 million Earths fit inside the sun, there are 3 billion stars in our galaxy and there are 2 trillion galaxies. The nearest star aside from the sun is 4.5 light years away. And I make things about me, yes? Wow.”  When you look at the sheer numbers with this post, it sure does get me thinking about things. Especially the odds of even being born… Less than 1 in over 400 Trillion!!  When you see these thoughts (I would call them simple facts), it sure does get us to pause and really think about how life can't just be about ourselves! The more I let this sink in, the better I feel.  I feel less pressure, less weight on my shoulders, less tension - all due to the fact that life is not just about me. When I start looking to help others, I start not only feeling better about my troubles, but I also am finding new ways to look at my issues and new ways of solving them!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

In this solo episode, Christina Lecuyer opens up about the internal tension so many of us feel but rarely name. The pull between the driven high achieving version of ourselves and the compassionate side that wants more ease, clarity, and alignment.Drawing from both personal experience and what she sees with clients, Christina dives into the patterns that quietly shape our lives. The stories we repeat. The habits we defend. The identities we hold onto even when they are no longer serving us. She shares why real change requires more than motivation and why taking full responsibility for your life can be both confronting and incredibly freeing.She also speaks candidly about the current state of social media, the rapid rise of AI, and why authenticity and genuine human connection matter now more than ever.If you have been feeling stuck, ready for a shift, or questioning the version of yourself you are living from, this episode will challenge your thinking and invite you into a deeper level of self leadership.If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn!
